Gratitude Post - I love the Alfred Remote App.

Simple Gratitude Post.  I love the flexibility of this app.  It's better than StreamDeck to me.  Thanks.

What are some real life use cases for this app? I've installed it in the past but never ended up using it.

Great Question.  It made me pause.  There are a lot, but I hear what you're saying.

 

For me; I have a deep OmniFocus database with about 15 perspectives.  I can launch any of the 15, with visual icons to launch them.  I can directly link to an AppleNote.  I can launch a keyboard snippet.  

 

I can Better Touch Tool, KeyBoard Maestro, Alfred, and TextExpand everything above on my keyboard without Alfred Remote.

But what Alfred Remote reminds me is that I can touch my frequently visited sites, I can choose which browser to launch from, etc.  I can also launch anything from any of those apps as well.

But is AppleNotes necessary?  No.  But its a nice to have accessory!

 

Side Note - Twitch Streamers and Live Broadcasters use a hardware version of this called a StreamDeck.
